There's do'ers and don'ters and I wills and won'tersD

and them, that don't even try

Givers and takers, movers and shakers

And them that are just passing by



Skidrows and winos and some folks that I know

That don't do like I think they should

I thought they were livin' their lifes all wrong

Long, before I understood





We all have to walk our own road

We can't always go where we're told

In the end where it'll end up - the Lord only knows

But we all have to walk our own road



I've had some good times and I've had a good life

And I've had things goin' my way

I've walked the highground and treasures that I've found

An' women who brightened my day



Then there were times I was caught in the crosswinds

With life - goin' 'round and around

Like a ship with no sail I was caught in a gale

Til I fin'ly just ran it a-ground
